Synthesis is an electrifying dance event that celebrates the legacy of Ririe-Woodbury, and our visionary co-founders.

This eclectic performance brings together emerging young artists with dedicated dance educators. During Synthesis the stage will come alive with dynamic choreography, crafted by these esteemed teachers and performed by talented high school dance companies. The Company Dancers will also share their creations, born during Ririe-Woodbury's High School Choreographic Residencies. In addition, an invigorating excerpt from Ririe-Woodbury’s dynamic repertory will be performed by the Company Dancers. This exhilarating performance promises to propel our vibrant dance community toward a dynamic future, igniting a new era of creativity and innovation.
